We The People

by Boogienights

Nice U.S. Political Poem Contest Winner 
The Democrats, I will admit, 
express desire to save the earth.
The "New Green Deal" that they push through,
some day, we might find out its worth.
The Democrats want equal rights,
for blacks and whites, I'm down with that.
Pro choice they are, and I agree,
a woman's choice, that's where it's at.

Republicans put our country first,
they're all about creating jobs,
and fair trade so we don't get screwed,
from countries that will try to rob...AMERICA!
The right to bear arms, they uphold,
capitalism they embrace.
We'll all get rich and protect our wealth,
in times like these, guns have their place.

Political parties need to heal,
agree to put our country first.
Instead of taking what is great,
reversing it, 'til it's the worst.
Absolute power will corrupt,
of late, we've seen this put in play.
"We the people", the founders meant us.
Shouldn't it be, that it's still true today?
